Cyrus raises hi-fi prices as it launches new XP amps
13 May 2009
Cyrus CD8SE now £1200
Cyrus joins a growing band of manufacturers raising its retail prices with increases on many of its key products.
The Award-winning Cyrus CD 6 SE (our 2008 product of the Year) goes up from £800 to £900, and the CD 8 SE from £1100 to £1200.
The CD Xt transport jumps from £800 to £975, the DAC X from £999 to £1275 and the DAC XP from £2200 to £2275.
There's a smaller increase on the Mono X power amp, up just £50 from £1200 to £1250, and the 8 Power rises from £700 to £850. The DAB 8.0 tuner remains the same at £500.
We'll be testing the first of Cyrus's new range of XP stereo amplifiers, the Cyrus 8 XP d, in our July issue, on sale June 3rd. The 8 XP d costs £1500, the 8 XP d Qx £1800 and the entry-level 6 XP £900.

Suspect it's the price of components that's gone up, and those pesky exchange rates.
Is the Audio visual industry that recession proof?
oh oh!
